She has a meticulous approach and will spend the time it takes to get your hair the colour you love! Her 13 years experience have given her the opportunity to grow her skills with the help of others in the industry.
Nothing fulfills her more than showcasing a woman's natural beauty and bringing out her confidence. Alicia loves everything hair, but first & foremost...Healthy Hair! Her attention to the health of the hair and the ability to customize a look for each guests individuality is what continues to motivate her each day.
